Abstract
|
:
|
This book presents a concise, accessible and engaging introduction to the theology of Jean-Luc Marion. Described as one of the leading thinkers of his generation, Marion's take on the postmodern is enhanced by his expertise in patristic and mystical theology, phenomenology, and modern philosophy. In this first introduction to Marion's thought, Robyn Horner provides the essential background to Marion's work, as well as analyzing the most significant themes for contemporary theology. This book serves as an ideal starting point for students of theology and philosophy, as well as for non-specialists seeking to further their knowledge of cutting-edge thinking in contemporary theology.
